Radio Receiver & Transmitter BC-1335 (SCR-619)
Publicado: 23 Feb 2011, 16:13Description
The BC-1335 is an FM transceiver used in late World War 2, covering 27.0 through 38.9 MHz in 120 crystal-controlled steps. It is an improved successor to the similar BC-659 radio. The transceiver operates from either 6VDC or 12VDC, supplied from an external source such as a battery pack.
I purchased this set from another collector in August, 2009. I don't have all of the accessories or documentation yet, so I'll need to update this page later after I learn more about this set. I do plan to put it on the air! The seller told me that it works, so I don't expect too much trouble. My set included a DY-44 dynamotor, which allows the set to be powered fomr a 24VDC source.
The set can use either an antenna whip which attaches to a swivel mount on the back of the transceiver, or a remote whip antenna. I have the J-72/GR matching unit which allows this radio to be used with an AB-15 antenna mast base, but I hope to get my hands on the correct built-in whip.
The SCR-619 set could be vehicle-mounted or carried on a special pack frame. In vehicular installations, the set would include Battery Charger PE-219, two each Battery Box CH-291, Mounting FT-506, and Terminal Box J-72/GR.
